Just in case anyone else travels this path...
1) Some of the wording is a bit confusing "Boot Parameters", "Parameter
and Configuration files", "CMS Configuration file" and "Kickstart"
2) I didn't know about the root=live:http://...
3) The graphic installed bombed on me
4) The text install is counterintuitive
a) It is difficult to determine if the information entered for #3 was
acceptable (i.e. did it find the files required)
b) Not aware that the "Processing..." under selection #4 also changes
#3 indicator to "!" (from "x"), after performing a "r"efresh, this became
evident

Excellent....working on the install now (just trying to determine what it needs
for 3).
3) [!] Installation source 4) [!] Software selection
(http://download.sinenomine.net (Processing...)
/clefos/7.1.1503) 6) [x] Install Destination
Thanks,
